Edit: Ooops. The parade starts at 2 pm, and is likely the biggest party in Washington for a long time. You may want to consult streaming options if you're in the D.C. area as a backup if your local affiliate is covering the parade.

I'd think it would be hard for NBC not to cover the NBC game. Are you thinking of NBC, or NBC sports? My NBC guide says "Notre Dame vs VT". Looks like NBC Sports is covering the parade.

The Terps game will stay on 7 as will the Hokies game on 4. WJLA's parade coverage will be on sister cable channel WJLA 24/7 News. WRC will flip parade coverage to its Cozi TV subchannel at 2:30 pm.— Everett Will (@DCAbloob) November 1, 2019

Reading the QB tea leaves in warmups today, Quincy Patterson's been the first player in line at each throwing station. Also taking snaps from Bryan Hudson, the first-team center. Probably tells you the direction the #Hokies are going. Hendon Hooker's here and dressed, though.— Andy Bitter (@AndyBitterVT) November 2, 2019

and another Bitter tweet

A few #Hokies lineup notes from warmups: - QP at QB1. Willis with twos.- Lecitus at LG. Austin Cannon at RG for Nester. - No Keshawn King. Terius Wheatley with twos at RB.- Devon Hunter with ones at rover for Floyd.- Crawford and Farley are back.- Pollard with twos.— Andy Bitter (@AndyBitterVT) November 2, 2019

4 fingers in to a bottle of Wikd Turkey Rare Breed. No matter what happens on the field today I win

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
“I served in the United States Navy"

Yeah since this game is house money, no need to risk injury to Hooker if he's not 100 percent yet. We need him down the stretch to win the division. I like throwing QP into the fire and seeing what he's got. We really have nothing to lose here.

I really hate the idea that this game is meaningless because we can still win the ACC Coastal and get run out of Charlotte by Clemson. This team, and particularly this staff, needs a big boy, statement win. No one we have left on the schedule is that.

I don't think this game is meaningless, but I also don't think it's worth risking the coastal, the bowl streak, or the commonwealth cup just to get one signature win. I'm okay with the coach's decisions to rest recovering players.

Today has reminded me how frustrated I am with our offensive coaching staff; specifically their inability to come up with anything creative. We all know that QP is inexperienced; however, do our coaches really think what they are doing is going to work?

"Vick, dashing back . . . here he comes again . . . Electrifying . . . and have you ever seen anything like this?"

I approach this game knowing that ND is really a lot better than us. They're bigger stronger faster and more experienced across the board. Challenging QP will be nice, but probably won't look great. Hope for not a blowout but today is about growth, not victory.

Overall I feel great. I feel pretty confident that if hooker wasn't hurt, this angry notre dame team would have just tied the game or brought it within 7. Really please with the fight the team is showing today.

Both guys had their heads at the "butt" of the tackle/TE (I can't remember if we had a TE lined up), that means both guys were "on the LOS. So if you are a LB/CB you recognize that the inside guy is not eligible and that you should be looking for a route from the outside WR or a run (b/c the inside guy is clearly a blocker). It tells those guys a ton.

The way Fuente is arguing I don't think it was over one yard and I don't think he thinks that's the rule to apply (right or wrong I don't know) but we will find out more after the game. Radio guys wondering if he had already had that formation run by officials

-They're letting QP throw more this game but he's missing throws and also the WRs have dropped some catchable balls. At least they haven't shied away from throwing because of that. I'd like to see them get him so easy throws though. It seems like most of them are all deep shots

-Corny needs to get McClease and Keene involved more with the run game. Its way too predictable with Patterson. Plus it looks like he's calling his own number too much on some of the reads so maybe just switch to handoff plays instead of reads.

QP is working and looking better....but I think we're up 10-14 points with Hooker. The early first half probably isn't a 3 and out fest and that might be enough. I'm really not impressed with Notre Dame.
